The quotes used show that John has started to change into a better person. John is speaking out to Hale about the corruption of the court, and eventually Hale agrees with John. He tells this to Hale after he tells John that he has questioned all of the accused and they confessed. Another quote that shows how John changed in Act II is when he tells Hale “And why not, if they must hang for denyin’ it? There are them that will swear to anything before they’ll hang have you never thought of that?”. John realizes that he has the opportunity to save lives if he tells the judges what he knows about Abigail. But I know the children’s sickness had naught to do with witchcraft.”(1130) During this time, the court is sentencing multiple people to death for minor actions. When Hale comes to his house for questioning after Abigail told the court that Elizabeth was practicing witchcraft, he says “ I-I have no witness and cannot prove it, except my word be taken. In the next few Acts of The Crucible, John Proctor is starting to use his knowledge to speak up against the trials. Therefore, in Act I and II John only acts for himself. This shows that John doesn’t understand his wife’s feelings. John doesn’t understand why she’s mad after he apologized, so he gets upset that his wife is still mad at him. John also told his wife “I will take your suspicion no more, women.” (1122) His wife, Elizabeth, knows that he had an affair so she is suspicious. This shows that John never had feelings for Abigail and took advantage of her naive emotions. Without considering Abigail’s emotions towards him he tells her to forget their experiences together.

We never touched, Abby.” (1109) John had an affair, but just now realizes that it makes his wife resent him. “Abby, I may think of you softly from time to time but I will cut off my hand before I’ll ever reach for you again. In Act I and II of The Crucible, John Proctor acts selfishly.
